For this, you can build your portfolio of services.This portfolio can be separated into segments, for example: products, areas, results, and segment of customers. Let&#39;s see each one of them? Product Portfolio Consists of the products that will be provided by your consultancy. Your portfolio should be organized to facilitate customer understanding.It is important to note that on average 20% of products correspond to 80% of consulting revenues. Therefore, it is extremely important to define the main groups of products that will be offered according to their focus of action. Portfolio by areas of action <Image quality="95" width="694" height="262" src="https://images.prismic.io/voitto-blog/NjQ3OTdiZGEtYWNhOC00OWYyLThiMTEtYWNmZDIxOTZkMTE4_lnbfl48y3jsl5s1sksdcgwd6ogxjdok60nlvkbl4_j7-t6q0jjsgryz0vlb8rx0tem-fn3ejvxzkqlunlr9dpsfs4achdddhhyjmdlavppifwqekqut912b2dkzvo_vzeicdut1j" alt="" title="" /> Did you see?

By choosing this option, you will pass on to your client what results he can expect when hiring your services.Always remember to put plausible results, after all, credibility is a key point in the consulting market, so never promise results you can&#39;t achieve.<h3>Portfolio by customer segments</h3> <Image quality="95" width="680" height="214" src="https://images.prismic.io/voitto-blog/ZGU4MzJmZGQtMGEzYi00YzU1LTg2NDUtMDA4NjlhMzM1N2U3_bhwwp8qcfdkkulyo9ebg2yg8vj_hvba5elt1vkithjurj_jrrz9ngvyn-2jtj0qydihtjpsceayqk15gxpdpysoflz5cqxvpteetj0rusdi_cpjrmfl_vkjhx4nhn5uun8iwr0rq" alt="" title="" /> Many consulting firms choose this option when setting up their portfolio.

It is similar to defining the areas of action, however, aimed at the people themselves!<h3>And why is it so important to define the target audience for a consultancy?</h3>I will answer this question with 3 topics:<ul><li>Efficient communication: Knowing the profile of your customers you will be able to know the best ways to communicate with them, defining the best channels and strategies of relationships.</li><li>Assertive products: customer segmentation allows you to know your characteristics and your needs, in this way you can develop the products that best meet your demands.</li><li>Sales Conversion: When you combine good marketing strategies with products that meet customer needs, you increase the number of sales and therefore your revenue.</li></ul>Did you see?

Let&#39;s see?<h4>1 - Get to know the market</h4>Look for information! Knowing the market where you will act is very important. Gather as much information about demographics as possible. But focus on what has to do with your strategy, product or service. Do not waste time on less relevant information<h4>2 - Segment Your Market</h4>Try to create subgroups within your market that may have similar buying behaviors and work accordingly. With focus and assertive offers your chances of success increase<h4>3 - Create assertive bids</h4>Do your bids in order to meet the requirements of the segments you&#39;ve identified. You may even think of some needs not yet identified by your audience, but be careful, try to serve them in what they need before innovating on offer.<h4>4 - Beware of your personal taste</h4>What is good for you is not necessarily good for your client. Do not work on your offers based on what you think, but rather on what you have learned from the segments and behaviors of your prospects, unless of course, you are working with segments whose profiles are the same as yours.<h4>5 - Define a communication strategy</h4><h4></h4>Identify the most appropriate communication channels with the identified segments and try to talk to them using the language and the particular form of each of them. Correct use of the approach and language will make your communication more assertive and will awaken more of your audience&#39;s desire to get to know you better.<h2>4 - Build your brand</h2>Your brand represents your identity, so it must translate the image you pass into the market.
